2017
1990-luvun alussa Suomen lainsäädäntö mahdollisti opetuksen vieraalla kielellä (CLIL – Content and Language Integrated Learning). Tässä tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan englanninkielipainotteisessa sisätauti-kirurgisessa koulutusohjelmassa opiskelleiden sairaanhoidon opiskelijoiden ammatillista suullista englannin kielen taitoa.
